Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| PrEP prescriptions among Black women accessing PPIL services and eligible for PrEP. | 1 month | PrEP eligibility among Black women will be defined based on positive STI test and identified in the EHR using STI testing records and new fields for optimizing support of provider PrEP counseling. Using de-identified patient-level EHR data for eligible women at each clinic within each time point, we will create a dichotomous variable for having received a prescription for PrEP during a given time period. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Receipt of PrEP refills among Black women accessing FP services at 6 months. | 6 months | Using de-identified patient-level EHR data for eligible patients at each clinic within each time point, we will create a dichotomous variable for receiving refills of prescriptions for PrEP of those with an initial PrEP prescription. |
